Editorial policy

Successive themed issues of Text Mattersare advertised on the journal website which also contains instructions for authors. The journal welcomes original, unpublished articles, reviews and interviews from all parts of the world. Contributions are peer reviewed by external reviewers (double blind reviews). The final decision is made by the editor-in-chief and issue reviewer who are assisted in the process by members of the editorial board responsible for a particular field. The journal reserves the right to immediately reject the texts that are popular rather than informed by academic expertise. Text Matters does not accept submissions in poor English or submissions that do not conform to Text Matters style sheet. The managing editor screens all the submissions in order to prevent plagiarism, ghost writing and other kinds of malpractice. Only then are contributions handed over to particular reviewers.
